long tubes=17rwhp on a n/a car; but if you dont have a gear yet that is what you need to do to get you out of the whole. And for the work of the install the shorty headers would just piss me off (personaly) my install for my headers was roughly 13hrs. But 1st things 1st :gears and a shifter and if you can get spring cheap jump on them.
scroush there are a lot of people hear doing cutom chips: fordspeed.com has superchips tune tech has diablo someone is doing JMS chips and Idle Wild is doing custom chips. So its pretty much pick you poison.

I deal w/Dan over Idlewild and he doesnt do chips he sends the chips to an outside person who burns the chips for him and send them back to him for his customers I spoke to Steve over Tune Tech he doesnt have the software to burn the chips himself as of last week when I spoke to him he will have to order the chip from Diablo and last I dont know about Fordspeed if they have the equipment to burn the Superchips on the spot and personally I wouldnt have a superchip in my car so to my knowledge here around tampa bay nobody to my knowledge has the capabilities yet to burn the chips on their shops so they have to order the chips from somewhere else.

I guess I asummed that you had gears already. That is the first thing you should do as bottlefed mentioned. Werent you the one asking about which gears to run in another forum ? If not drop in the 3:55s with your 5-speed. The 3:73s or higher are a little to much for radials.

the 373s arent too high of a gear ----i run a 373 on street tires (futura ultra zs) and stock suspension and run 1.90 60 foot times----i have it on video----so the 373s aret too high of a gear......

Most of the mags will tell you the same. Do as you please.

from what ive gathered from reading and talking to people is that the 3:55 is great for the t-5 trans and the 3:73 is good on the t-45 cuz they have different gear ratios----i mean a gear is a gear--its all relative to how much power you have-trans where your powerband is yadda yadda yadda --- the only reason im even replying is that ive talked to so many people who go with the 3:73 on the 4.6----a fast car is gonna be fast nomater what gear you have--so (sixbangin) dont be too worried about it if you get one and dont like it you can always change it..
